We should have kept Hiddink as coach for Holland. Australia plays more dutch-style then the dutch team does now.

He got 3 yellow cards though.[/b]

How? Where?

As I said the referee never showed him the red card, it was a mistake by the director of the broadcast, how the hell did he get the yellow card?

Please next time watch the broadcast on Slovenian TV if your only pleasure is to bash Croatians...

Gregor, you do have some issues with Croats, don't you?

Please spare us all your bitterness and frustration. Nobody of us ever stated anything else than the fact that we were worse side in the match and that we didn't deserve to go through, and then you fly in with all the bashing and hate talk.

Too bad that, by some unfortunate case, Slovenia didn't manage to go through to the World Cup so we can't return the favor and spit on your team.

And for your information, Kalac is not in any way related to Ladic, especially not in the quality of his goalkeeping. Mind you, Ladic was one of the best goalkeepers in World Cup 1998 in France and is by far the best keeper Croatia ever had.

No country bashing here please. Even if you think a country has a 'lesser' team, show respect!

and yes, keep in mind every country has it's own subjective view of reporting matches. That's logical isn't it? Nobody likes to lose.

He showed them everyone saw it. It is even written on BBC. (see my quote)

No my pleasure is that they will finally stop throwing the firecrackers which have a tendency to explode near my window (since i am in the middle of appartment building).

But actually Prso and Pletikosa are really the only ones playing good. Only as one imigrant Croatian wrote: "Prso had to go back to midfield, pick up the ball, run to Australian goal, pass to himself, driblle and try to make a shot."

Well our team doesn't believe they should be world champions or something. which is probably also the reason why they are not there if we did manage to ge ton it i know what kind of comments the headcoach would have: "I think it is quite goo that we lost only 4:0. it could have been worse." <--he always say that.

And the thing is that no one (except Osim) had the guts to admit it was only their fault...well basically to say what that article says.

Ok this was a joke, cause i remembered those saves sometimes Ladic made. or when he tried to kick the ball, missed it and ball went into his goal. sure he was a good goalie, otherwise Croatia would never come to be the in the 3rd place. but he had his moments.

Oh and we can't watch Croatian TV anymore. they blocked it during the game. i can only hear comments after the game sometimes. this is the reason why Croatian minority (?!) filled in a lawsuit.

I remember i was on Krk when Croatia played in France. That was totally diferent athmosphere. much better. i had fun with Croatian fans in a tavern where we were watching the game. but the firecrackers really get on my nerves, esepcially after a tiresome day at work.

The second yellow card was the one at the end of the game(I'km not sure if that is true either), the alleged second one was never shown, true the referee reached to his pocket but he only read his booklet, BBC makes mistakes y'know...

[Maikel]

I saw him giving 3 cards to simic. It's written here on all news site's because it's a new record in soccer history. No one ever received 3 cards in one match

[Tulac]

My predictions for Ukraine - Tunis are that Tunis will lead in the first half but Ukraine will win in the end...

[duckpatch]

Your predictions are wrong haha.

I swear Simunic got three yellows aswell. The commentator was baffled aswell.

People you're mixing Šimić with Šimunić, Šimić got sent off for a second yellow card...
